There is definitely a lack of publications providing legal advice to student loan borrowers. The legal framework constitutes such a "stacked deck" against student loan borrower litigation that there isn't a lot of useful information that can be provided to borrowers. This is why the millions of student loan borrowers in the U.S. MUST become activists in the fight to reform our student loan industry, including reform of the laws and regulations that treat student loan borrowers in a manner disparate from borrowers of other types of loans. No applicable statutes of limitations and the difficulty in obtaining discharge in bankruptcy are two prime examples. If student loan borrowers do not speak with one voice, the legal landscape is unlikely to change.

Perhaps we could create a book topic on our website with chapters submitted by student loan borrowers who have experiences to share related to legal issues. Our attorney volunteers could review the submissions and provide additional information and comments, building the member submissions into an online book that could be helpful to borrowers. This could be the most expeditious path to getting a "guide" with legal information relevant to student loan borrowers online. My concern is whether we have a "critical mass" of members who can contribute such experiences. Members who are interested in contributing content to this type of book, please post a reply.
